The joint registry report that has been put together is comprehensive, informative and relevant. Thanks to the vision of luminaries such as Prof Noor, Prof Chinoy and the other scholars who are listed on the authors list, you have put Pakistan on the map again by producing this great compendium. I like the mention of non-orthopedic Pakistani Noble laureates, scientists, and visionaries in the report who serve humanity in various capacities in dierent parts of the world. It is wonderful, but not surprising, to see the association between Pakistan Orthopedic Association and numerous other international organizations. The leadership of Pakistan Orthopedic Association has been present and contributed to the educational mission of many relevant international meetings. They have forged friendship with other educators and organizations that will serve our patients for the years to come. I am personally a beneciary of these friendships. I have enjoyed learning from my friends in Pakistan about orthopedics, life and more importantly about humanity. I strive to visit your beautiful country, the basin of human civilization and my generous friends. I take pride in wearing the POA tie that I was given a few years ago and declaring my association with POA to my patients. I am honored to call many of you friends and hope to have the chance to forge friendship with other scholars whom I am yet to meet. May Allah bless you, your families, your nation and your beautiful country. Sincerely yours Javad Parvizi MD, FRCS James Edwards Professor of Orthopedic Surgery, Sidney Kimmel Medical College Rothman Institute at Thomas Jeerson University Hospital Sheridan Building, Suite 1000 125 South 9th Street Philadelphia, PA 19107 Foreword 05 Message President APOA First of all, I would like to thank the President Prof. Dr. Shahid Noor for his kind invitation to write this message for the 5th Annual Report of the Pakistan National Joint Registry (PNJR). It’s an honor and pleasure for me to write the message for the 5th annual report of PNJR. Since it’s initiation in Sweden in 1975, national joint arthroplasty registries have been used increasingly by many other countries, worldwide. They are extremely useful, and valueable scientically in monitoring the clinical results, and outcomes of joint arthroplasties in national aspects, comparatively. Moreover, the International Society of Arthroplasty Registries (ISAR) acts as the international coverage of national joint arthroplasty registries. I congratulate the President Prof. Dr. Shahid Noor for his relevant contributions, and eorts. I strongly believe that the contribution of the Pakistan Arthroplasty Society with the project PNJR in its 6th successful year is important, and valuable in both Asia Pacic region, and the whole world. I recommend this report for all our colleagues who are interested in the eld of arthroplasty. Finally, I would like to invite you to the 21st APOA Biennial Congress in Malaysia in 2020. Sincerely yours Prof. Mahmut Nedim DORAL, M.D. President, APOA Chair Of Department of Orthopedics & Trauma Hacettepe University APOA President Message 07 Message Director PNJR It is a matter of immense pleasure and pride for me to present to you this 5th Annual Report of Pakistan National Joint Registry (PNJR). It is the continuous zeal, eort and commitment of the executive board of Pakistan Arthroplasty Society (PAS), the authors of this report and more importantly the contributors who have registered their cases into the database that has made us proud by lifting the standard of our registry for the 5th consecutive year, to produce a world class report. We have strived hard to control the problems encountered every year in production of this report and one of the major work has been on cleaning of data for which I would like to praise the work put in by our ocial research partners-Metrics Research. We have choosen a unique theme of introducing Pakistani scientists. This shows the immense talent that our beautiful country cultivates and that presents the hard work of many scientists in austere circumstances. Our registry is akin to such work of scientic relevance that puts us right on top with other countries of the developed world who have national joint registries. Though far from being perfect, we are well on track in the quest to join the elite of the world of arthroplasty. You can also see that with each passing year we are gaining popularity and this is reected in the continuous growth of centers, PI’s and the number of joints registered. I am hopeful that this eort of the Pakistan Arthroplasty Society will go a long way in shaping the future of joint replacement surgery in Pakistan and aect many scientic databases in collaborative research across the region and the globe. The board of PNJR has been successfull in guiding and developing many surgical and medical national registries in Pakistan including cardiology registry of Pakistan, diabetic registry of Pakistan, stroke registry of Pakistan and hepatitis registries of Pakistan. We are encouraging our colleagues and subspeciality orthopedic societies to develop national registries.

    Newsletter of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission September-October,2002 Back to Main Chairman PAEC addresses 46th Regular Session of the IAEA General Conference Pakistan seeks IAEA cooperation to build more nuclear power plants There is a close relationship between peace, economic growth and technology. While deliberating upon relationship between technology and economic growth, the importance of energy can hardly be overemphasized. Pakistan's limited hydro and fossil fuel resources are not sufficient to cater for an ever increasing demand of energy. The nuclear option in our national energy strategy has taken a firm footing. This was stated by Mr. Parvez Butt, while addressing as the leader of the delegation from Pakistan to the 46th Regular Session of the IAEA General Conference, held at Vienna, Austria, from 16- 20 September, 2002. Excerpts from his address: "We are encouraged by the recent positive shift in attitude towards nuclear energy at the international level. The Agency's annual report for the year 2001 predicts even better prospects for nuclear power. We, in Pakistan, want to build more safeguarded nuclear power plants and seek the cooperation and assistance of the member states of IAEA. The construction and operation of nuclear power plant not only has direct economic advantage but creates thousands of job opportunities", he said. Pakistan fully supports the importance of International Project on Innovative Nuclear Re- actors and Fuel Cycles (INPRO) and the need for accelerating the activities in this regard. Pakistan is actively participating in IAEA's nuclear desalination project and working on the establishment of a demonstration nuclear desalination facility at our Karachi Nuclear Power Plant with the help of IAEA.

  • Higher Education in Nuclear Technology in Pakistan
    STATUS OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY IN PAKISTAN Abdullah Sadiq Pakistan Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences Pakistan’s nuclear power program was formally launched in 1959 with the establishment of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC). The first research reactor, the Pakistan Research Reactor (PARR1), went critical in 1965, while the first nuclear power plant, the Karachi Nuclear Power Plant (KANUPP), was connected to the grid in 1972. PARR1, a 5 MW highly enriched uranium swimming pool reactor, has been upgraded to 10 MW low enriched reactor and KANUPP is a 137 MWe CANDU reactor. Later during the mid eighties PAEC added another small research reactor, PARR2, a miniature neutron source, and in 2000 a 325 MW PWR at Chashma, the Chashma Nuclear Power Plant (CHASHNUPP). Thus PAEC currently owns and operates two nuclear power plants and two research reactors. KANUPP has completed its design life of 30 years and is now undergoing the re-licensing process. CHASNUPP has just completed its first refueling outage. Negotiations for the third nuclear power plant, also a 300 MW PWR from China, are continuing. The training and education programs in nuclear technology were initiated in the early 1960’s soon after the establishment of PAEC. Initially the cream of fresh graduates in engineering, medicine and natural sciences, who were inducted in PAEC were given short training before they were sent for higher studies abroad. The availability of a nucleus of highly qualified professionals in nuclear power and allied disciplines, the lack of adequate facilities in the local educational institutions in these fields and the realization that many more professionals will be needed than could be trained abroad led to the establishment of coherent indigenous training and education program in the late sixties.

A number of natural and social scientists participated in it to develop a shared understanding of the issues within a common conceptual framework as well as to set a pattern for more intensive seminars in future on the themes related to development of S&T. Prof. Atta-ur-Rahman, Minister of S&T, initiated the discussion on the subject followed by presentation of written papers and oral statements. Some of these papers were revised and edited and are included in this volume. Some papers presented at the seminar forcefully argued that the impact of development of nuclear science in the country has negatively affected the progress of non-nuclear sciences. A few participants in the seminar contested this view but they did not write down their disagreement.

Nilore, Islamabad, Pakistan (Received February 28, 2005 and accepted in revised form October 12, 2005) In this article the historical-role of the Pakistan Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences (PIEAS) as the key Human Resource Development (HRD) centre of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC) is described. This brief account covers a period of about 37 years, from 1967 to 2004 and goes on to describe the several transformations that a small and modest facility „Reactor School‟ went through by first growing into the famous „Centre for Nuclear Studies (CNS)‟ and later-on the present day PIEAS - as one of the most respected and prestigious degree awarding institute of the country. PIEAS was established to cater for the HRD needs of PAEC but now its scope has been broadened to a much wider extent to address the national needs. Presently PIEAS is imparting education to the postgraduate level in 7 different areas with a diversity that ranges from Nuclear Engineering to Nuclear Medicine, while several other graduate and postgraduate degrees are in the pipeline. The pioneering role of its founders and the award-winning contributions of PIEAS graduates are also presented.
